Colored = RACIST!!!!
In the future will we get alerts in the mail when a current acceptable term is deemd “outdated, offensive and racist”??
Somebody tell the NAACP.
Ironically, they sure scream for the NAACP in a hurry.
Descriptive terms are a constantly moving goalpost, because there’s always some idiot out there looking to feel offended about something. On top of that, once the descriptive term starts getting used in a perjorative manner, because some members of the group it describes get out of control, that iteration of the term will become outdated.
Not to mention the double-standard around some of those descriptive terms.
What’s the big deal? We all have earth-tone colored skin. As a matter fact, I’m looking to replace the carpeting in my living room with a retro-chocolate “Ray Nagin” shag.
One hundred years ago mortgages were typically limited to 50% of property value.
A number of factors can lower urban housing values:
1. the school system
2. crime
3. the percentage of units in the area needing repairs and modernization
4. lifestyle factors such as shopping
5. property tax
6. pension funding gaps
As has long been said: location, location, location
JD Sosnoff, KMOV vice president and general manager, and Stark tried to do damage control over the apparent slip-up as criticism grew over the cringe remark.
“It was in an original script as ‘homeowners of color’ and was inadvertently changed and mistakenly read on air,” Sosnoff said,
This just illustrates how few real journalists are on the air these days. Instead, they hire someone who looks good on camera, and tell them to read word for word whatever is on the teleprompter in front of them. A real journalist would have thought "that can't be right" and have adjusted his reporting accordingly.
Public displays of anger can lower property value.
The public use of foul language can lower property value.
The reality is, there is no fixed “preferred” term for any group of people.
The late Justice Scalia said something like “I’m an American, not Italian-American.”
I know black people who still prefer black, while others prefer African-American.
I haven’t heard anyone prefer to be called “colored.” Yet, in Human Resources, the phrase “People of Color” and “Women of Color” is on the ascent. This is a wide net, including people who may be from Taiwan, China, India, South or Central America, or are black.
Even in the LGBT etc arena, it’s a mess. There are gays who don’t want anything to do with trans, and there is now TERF (trans-exclusionary radical feminism or feminist, a term used to describe women who oppose trans people).
And now, white people are jumping into the fray. Everyone wants a label or a ribbon to put on their lapel. Oy vey.
Most of the time, if I ask someone what they want to be called, they say Bob or Mary.
The Civil War Between Nouns and Participles?
People of Color (noun - OK).
Colored (participle - not OK) People.
"People of fat" - acceptable
Pickup trucks can lower property value.
Civil war flags can lower property value.
“colored”
Horror of horrors!
Clearly the only solution is to burn the city down.
Oh good grief, liberal racists (is there any other kind?), get a life, quite m**turbating on the language, stfu, and try to produce useful things in life.
There is a certain group of people whom were cannot be specifically quantified, having a problem which cannot be described, in a certain undisclosed area. Film at 11…… “what, no film either?”……. 🤔
National Association for the Advancement of Colored People
Women of Color Against Violence
National African American Gun Association
National Afro-American Council
United Negro College Fund
Congressional Black Caucus
Once somebody decides which of the demographic terms exemplified above I can use and which I can’t, please let me know, because now it’s kinda confusing.
Black = racist
The racist Black minority-majority is a plague on American cities. Fortunately, tens of thousands of migrants are coming to oust them
Democrat/Communists sure get triggered easily, don't they?
(Oops! Can't say "trigger" any more; it's "trigga".)
